With our new Youth Emergency Center almost open and our Donation Center up and operational, Metamorphosis Project is in need of some items in order to better serve our LGBTQ+ youth clients experiencing homelessness. Often times, these clients come to us with nothing more than a duffel bag of their personal belongings. While we are able to help set them up with their own apartments through our Rapid Rehousing Program, the need for items to fill those apartments is still great.
Listed below are some items that we are in need of. At this time we are not accepting any clothing items not listed below, as our clothing closets are currently overfilled.
